As long as you think Marcion is meant you will read the passage as = "and falsification of scripture will become evident (apparebit vitiatio scripturae)." But the passage is clearly connected with the line that came before [ = so that they were perverting the gospel, not by any such interp...

I would love to be instructed as to why this section in Adversus Marcionem should be used as a guide for Marcion's collection of Pauline letters. Where's the evidence that Marcion had any of this nonsense: So he writes that after fourteen years he went up to Jerusalem, to seek the support of Peter a...

Paul's interests (allegedly) are only with the Gentiles. He doesn't care (allegedly) that differences exist between his gospel and that of the Jerusalem Church because his gospel is going forward albeit in an altered form. Does it help if Paul was understood to be speaking about a written gospel her...

The concession (yielding for an hour) cannot logically lead in any direct way to the result (so that the gospel might persevere). Another example. I write a book. The movie studio wants to develop a screenplay but demands that a nude scene must be added. I accept these terms and tell my fans on Twi...

one hour only was likely the (alleged) time of the meeting. He said what he needed to say and then continued with his own agenda.

So, for one hour only ... [r]ather very strange

Not really. It happens every day when people have sex.

Paul did yield for a short time to the authority of the Jerusalem church.

Why doesn't it make sense? My mother used to always tell me the same thing. Be nice for an hour.
